Recommended cutting equipment for USA
Following is a list of recommended cutting equipment for Husqvarna chain saw models 440e II TrioBrake and 445e II
TrioBrake II. These chain saw models equipped with either of the listed guide bar and saw chain combination(s), fulfills
the requirements according to ANSI B175.1-2000 (Gasoline Powered Chain Saws - Safety Requirements).
The following list is the chain saw manufacturers recommendations. There may be other combinations available, which
will also achieve kickback reduction.
Chain saw models Husqvarna 440e II TrioBrake and 445e II TrioBrake met the kickback performance requirements of
ANSI B175.1-2000 when tested with the combinations of bars and saw chains listed below. The saw chain Husqvarna
H30 is also classified as a low kickback saw chain since it met the requirements for low kickback saw chain outlined in
ANSI B175.1-2000. We recommend to use only the listed combinations of bars and chains for chain saw models
Husqvarna 440e II TrioBrake and 445e II TrioBrake. Other chain saw models may not meet the kickback requirements
when equipped with the listed guide bar and saw chain combinations.
Kickback information
The guide bar nose radius is determined by either the maximum number of teeth in the nose sprocket or the
corresponding maximum nose radius of a solid bar.
As we are listing the maximum guide bar nose radius, you may use a guide bar with smaller nose radius than in our list.
For guide bars of the same length, all sprocket-nose guide bars of the same pitch and having the same number of
sprocket teeth may be considered to have equivalent kickback energy.
